Chapter 329: Demon's Whisper

Duke Capa, as he himself admitted, didn't know much about things magical.

Therefore, he could not have known that as soon as Yuris stepped into his reception room, he had been affected by a special potion that was very rare on the continent.

"Devil's Whisper", that's the name of this potion. This is a highly volatile potion, and when making this potion, the maker will drop a drop of someone's blood into the potion at the moment when the potion is about to take shape, so that when the potion is completed, as long as the colorless and odorless "demonic whisper" volatilized in the air is inhaled, the affected person will subconsciously develop a sense of identification with the owner of the blood in the potion.

Unlike other hallucinogens, the potion is effective in amplifying the influence of the potion's owner's words on the person who inhales it. Whenever the potion owner says something to him, the person who inhales the potion will take the initiative to dig up extremely powerful evidence of the potion owner's statement from his existing memories and even the deep memories that he has forgotten. Of course, if the potion's master's words are completely contrary to any life experience in his life, the potion will not be effective, but if there is an experience that can confirm what the potion master says, then the effect will be infinitely magnified in the thinking circuit of the recruiter, and even enough to make the recruiter ignore most of the adverse evidence to the contrary just because of such a trivial matter.

Compared with ordinary hallucinogens and mind-control potions, the flaw of "Demon's Whisper" is undoubtedly obvious, it cannot directly make people obey the instructions of the potion applicator and become a puppet that obeys the words of the potion appliance, at best, it can greatly reduce the resistance to the verbal demagogy and persuasion of the potion owner, so that the potion owner can easily achieve the purpose of persuasion. But "Devil's Whisper" also has an advantage that all other hallucinogens can't match- It cannot be verified or detected by any direct means, and although the person who is tricked is induced to think under the effect of the potion, because the whole process of thinking is still led by himself, once he accepts a certain statement from the owner of the potion under the influence of the potion and reaches a certain understanding, then even if he is no longer affected by the potion later, he will still believe that this perception is undoubtedly correct, and will act according to this knowledge.

This strange potion is very difficult to obtain due to the materials used to make it, and at first glance it seems to be much more frustrating than ordinary hallucinogens, so even in the wizarding world, it is not particularly famous, and Capa, who has basically nothing to do with magic, will not know about the existence of this potion at all, and even if he does, he will not realize that he is being affected by this potion until he sees Yuris use this potion on himself.

As a result, Count Capa, who was unwittingly affected by Yuris's "Devil's Whisper", almost at the moment when Yuris hinted that his new King Charles I of Lloris might make a move against the Solan Viewing Group, countless memories seemed to open the door to countless memories in his mind, and countless things with positive evidence for this kind of thing happened.

Count Capa thought that these were his own thoughts, and he was even a little complacent that he had gone through so many years of officialdom, but his mind was still as sharp as before, and he was able to remember some of the details of the past so clearly, and he didn't know what he had figured out, and after seeing his expression, Yuris, who knew that his goal had basically been achieved, secretly put the "Devil's Whisper" in his palm The lid of the vial was screwed on, such a precious potion, he didn't want to waste too much for an idiot.

"Lord Capa, it seems that you have figured it out. ”

Yuris's words made Capa suddenly come back to his senses from his "thoughts", and at this moment he had completely believed Yuris's words, believing in the "fact" that His Majesty the current King Loris was going to take action against the Solan viewing group.

Looking at Yuris, Capa's face had changed from gloomy to slightly ruddy, as he had been helping the old king do "dirty work" all along. He knew very well that although this action might end up in a bad reputation among the commoners and some nobles, and even provoke the all-out hostility of the Solan Holy Kingdom and the forces of the Solan Cult against him, on the contrary, he would definitely take this opportunity to embrace Charles I, a freshly baked thick leg, as long as things were done neatly, from now on he would change from the old king's lackey to the current king's loyal confidant.

"Well, I already understand what Your Majesty means, Your Excellency Envoy. ”

After carefully reading the contents of the secret letter again, Capa folded the secret letter, and then put it in the oil lamp in front of the desk and burned the note. After skillfully destroying the only piece of evidence, Capa smiled flatteringly at Yuris, who didn't even notice it.

"Then Your Excellency, as far as I can do with the action, you see...... After all, this time the guard work of the Four Chambers Tournament, it stands to reason that our third team of the royal family will not participate......"

This time, although the four-court competition in the Elemental Festival claims to be politically non-political, because the number of local and foreign spectators who go to the temporary arena near the college town on the outskirts of the city to watch the game during each game is too large, and there are heavyweight foreign guests like the current saint in the viewing group of this year's four-house competition, so whenever there is a match day, one of the three ordinary brigades of the Royal Guard will always be temporarily dispatched to temporarily do the duty of peripheral protection near the outskirts of the city in the name of military drills.

Because they were worried that Kapa's group of young master soldiers would not be able to endure the excitement in the middle of the game, they would leave their posts to watch the game and cause some kind of trouble, so this time the royal family of the Four Houses Tournament did not arrange the third guard to serve as the peripheral guard in the event.

"Your Excellency, please don't worry, since Your Majesty has this arrangement, then you will naturally be prepared in this regard, and early tomorrow morning, the troops that were originally responsible for today's garrison tasks will be temporarily changed to your third brigade...... I believe that Lord Earl understands that His Majesty's choice of the Third Brigade not only trusts you, but more importantly, this mission is only the most appropriate for the Third Guard under your command, so please do not disclose the rumors about this operation in advance, especially not to be known by the personnel of the First and Second Guards. ”

Capa nodded, and that thought to him as well. Although the first and second guards of the royal family are the elite descendants of the royal family, almost all of them from small soldiers to officers are commoners or small nobles at the grassroots level, and these people happen to be the most easily infiltrated by the Solan faith. And although the combat strength of the Royal Third Brigade is not as good as theirs, almost all of the officers in the army are the children of the nobles of the kingdom above the middle level, this group of people basically only believes in family and rights and does not believe in any gods, don't look at the usual well-dressed upper-class people, as long as there are enough benefits and interests, this group of people will definitely behave more unprincipled than anyone else.

"But my lord, this time the action is really a bit sudden, even if it is my third team, I am afraid that if I announce this news on the spot tomorrow, there will be some chaos on the spot......

"Your Excellency, please don't worry, the Duke of Mana and the Duke of Wisenlit are both informed of His Majesty's decision this time. ”

Capa shuddered in a flash, then looked at Yuris in horror.

There are four lieutenants under his third brigade who are second only to him in power, one of them is his absolute confidant, and the remaining three are the young men of the Mana family, the Wisenlitt family and the Luthor family, and the Duke of Mana and the Duke of Wisenlitt already knew in advance the meaning of this operation, that is, the two lieutenants under his command knew the plan of action for this time long before him?

Capa only felt a chill in his back, he no longer doubted the authenticity of this secret mission at all, if there was a slight possibility that the royal envoy was fake, then it was not a simple fraud to be able to get the two dukes to cooperate.

Your Majesty, this is really going to face off with the Holy Kingdom of Solan.

"Finally, Count Capa is asked to remember that tomorrow's actions will be under the command of His Highness Sekaria. ”

"What?!" Capa looked at Yuris with wide eyes and dismay, "Will Her Highness the Princess come forward herself......?"

Yuris's brow furrowed slightly, and with the cover of the black robe around him, he once again took out the vial containing "Devil's Whisper" from his pocket, and then, with a smile, released the "final blow" to Kappa.

"That's right, Your Highness the Princess, will be the person in charge of this operation......

Half an hour later, under the respectful send-off of the gatekeeper, a figure in a black robe left the Earl's Court from the side door.

Turning left and right along the deserted streets and alleys, the black-robed man found a remote alley near the civilian area and got in, and after seeing that there was no sign of anyone around, the black-robed man pulled down the hood on his head, and then pinched his face with his hand.

If there was a second person here, he would have seen this terrifying scene, under the reflection of the moonlight that leaked into the alley, the royal envoy Yuris, who had just delivered the royal secret order in the Duke of Capa's palace, slowly tore a layer of "skin" from his face, and then, the face of a young man with completely different characteristics except for his youth appeared underneath the torn "skin".

The black-haired young man carefully folded the "skin" he had torn off a few times and put it in his pocket, and then took out a small box-shaped magic guide from his pocket again and put it to his mouth.

"Uncle Vincent?"

Less than a second later, Vincent's voice with surprise came from the magician.

"Oh, Gurney, you finally have news, how's it going?"

"All the best," Gurney said with a smile, "with the help of these wonderful magic items that Lord Explorer lent us, that Count Capa believed me without any suspicions. ”

"What about the letter forged by illusion?"

"It's been burned by the earl. ”

Yes, Count Capa probably didn't even think to himself, and the letter he saw was really just like he had said with a half-joking start, with the king's handwriting and the royal coat of arms on it, all forged by a very clever illusion.

As the old nobles of the kingdom, the secret study of the Mana family contained a large number of similar correspondence with the royal family, and through Eddes, or "Edus", who had completely taken over the Mana family these days, Gurney easily obtained the handwriting of the current King of Loris, Charles I, and the secret of this special coat of arms, which had been preserved within the Mana family.

"By the way, Uncle Vincent, what's going on on your side?"

Gurney poked his head out to see that the street was still empty, and continued to whisper.

"Don't worry, the situation at Fort Guards is under control. ”

Vincent's voice sounded confident.

"Clark has put the chief of Fort Guard under house arrest with the help of the people of the Mana family and the Wisenlit family, and now the men and horses of Fort Guardie are all in the hands of Prince Naris, haha, that prince is probably crazy now, he should have completely determined that the people who cooperate with him are the Mana family and the Wisenlit family. ”

"Actually, isn't it?" said Gurney with a smile, "On the Mana family's side, the Explorer's subordinate is now the actual Mana family master, and the Wisenlit family is on the side...... Who would have thought that all the orders were impersonated by Uncle Vincent?"

The Wisdomleet family, the family that attaches the most importance to business among the four dukes' families, more than half of the family's personnel and resources have been invested in the Wisdomn Chamber of Commerce, and even many spokespersons of the Wisdomllit family in the political and military circles are conveyed through the Wisdomn Chamber of Commerce when they are in contact with the Wisdomllett family. Similar to the secret coat of arms of the royal family, the Weisen Chamber of Commerce also has its own set of authentication methods for conveying secret and important information like these military and political leaders.

And this secret way of conveying news has already been discovered by Vincent in the name of the Weisen Chamber of Commerce in the name of the Weisen Chamber of Commerce by secret means a few years ago.

The Vincent Chamber of Commerce was already a vassal of the Visennes Chamber of Commerce seven or eight years ago, and under Vincent's deliberate management over the years, almost everyone knew that the Vincent Chamber of Commerce was almost the most loyal dog among all the vassals of the Vicente Chamber of Commerce, so when Vincent used the secret contact method unique to the Vicente Chamber of Commerce to find the officers in the Fort of Guards and the Royal Guard who had something to do with the Wisenlit family, he was in the "Devil's Whisper" Under the effect, the other party did not have any suspicion at all, and directly regarded the content conveyed by Vincent as the will of the Weisen Chamber of Commerce. The Wiesen Chamber of Commerce and the Wisenlit family, on the other hand, know nothing about this so far.

The web of conspiracy has been spread.

"By the way, Gurney, over there...... Did you really decide to do that?"

Gurney was silent for a while while holding the magic communicator in his hand.

“...... Well, there's no way around it, Uncle Vincent...... All for Nolan and revenge. (To be continued.) )
